Transition Set

Transition Set files (.ts) are the link between the Classifier and the Strategy.
Each state is linked to a Transition Set file (see Classifier), so that when the classifier is making a prediction,
the index of the most activated output neuron corresponds to an index of the Transition Set file and thus to a Transition.
When the classifier has predicted the next Transition, the Strategy is used to determine the next state and the relative movement of the word index.

Each line of a .ts file will be of the form [<stateName>] transitionName [arguments] where [elements] are optional.
stateName restricts the transition to a certain state.

Transitions

Here is the list of all available transitions along with their possible arguments :

• WRITE $1.$2 $3 $4
  Write a string to a cell. E.g. WRITE b.0 UPOS VERB
  • $1 : b or s, writing to the buffer or the stack.
  • $2 : Relative index to write into.
  • $3 : The name of the tape to write into.
  • $4 : The string to write.
• ADD $1.$2 $3 $4
  Add a string to a cell. E.g. ADD b.0 FEATS Gender=Fem
  • $1 : b or s, writing to the buffer or the stack.
  • $2 : Relative index to write into.
  • $3 : The name of the tape to write into.
  • $4 : The string to append.
• eager_SHIFT
  Shift transition in arc_eager transition based parsing. Push the current word index onto the stack.
• standard_SHIFT
  Shift transition in arc_standard transition based parsing. Push the current word index onto the stack.
